Greenville BPW Club features Author Jodie Bohman!

Greenville, OH. The Greenville Business and Professional Women’s Club will host their monthly dinner meeting, Thursday, November 8th at the Brethren’s Retirement Community’s Brick Room at 6:30 pm. The meeting will be hosted by the IDP (Individual Development Program) committee with Chair Dorothy Poeppelman, and members Michelle Hook, Louisa Kennedy, Jane Carroll, Erica Menke, and Kristi Strawser. The program will include a presentation by Jodie Bohman, Superintendent’s Secretary at Versailles School and published author. Bohman, mother of two daughters is speaking about her creative imagination and putting her thoughts together for her first book ‘And I Believe’. This book was published in August, 2014. While the story is made up, Jodie knew “way too many people who have fought cancer, are currently fighting cancer, or have lost their battle with cancer, and wanted to write a story about it”. She has since written a sequel ‘Mattie ’ which picks up 18 years where ‘And I Believe’ left off, which should be available by December. Bohman is currently in the works of writing her third book, ‘A Bottle Full of Demons’, which picks up where ‘Mattie’ leaves off.
